Hans Raj Hans biography

Hans Raj Hans is a singer cum politician who is affiliated with Bhartiya Janata Party. He is the incumbent Member of Parliament from Delhi’s North West Delhi constituency. He was born on April 9, 1962, in Shafipur, Punjab.

His journey in music began at a young age, and he gained popularity with his soulful renditions of Punjabi folk and Sufi songs. Over the years, he has released numerous albums and has performed on various national and international platforms, earning him a significant fan following.

His entry into politics was marked by his association with the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), a regional political party in Punjab. However, his political journey took a significant turn when he joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 2016. His transition to the BJP was seen as a move to reach out to a broader base and contribute to the party's efforts in Punjab.

In 2019, he was nominated by the BJP to contest the Lok Sabha elections from the North West Delhi constituency. He won the election with a substantial margin, marking his successful debut in national politics. As a Member of Parliament, he has been actively involved in various parliamentary committees and has raised issues concerning his constituency and the state of Punjab.
